I know this request is going to sound strange, but can someone tell me how
easy/difficult it is to change things from an IBM-type database (like IMS),
to a UNIX-type database (like INGRES, UNIFY, ORACLE). I'm thinking about
porting a software package from an IBM environment to a UNIX/C environment,
and I'm pretty sure the package uses the IMS database. Any and all 
suggestions and comments (other than flames if this is a stupid question)
are welcome. Please e-mail responses to me at cbosgd!tgt. Thanks!!

    on a thousand typewriters would eventually produce the exact same thing!!
